The One True TheDavid:How would an 8 year old do that? Physically? I recall reading someplace that babies can get erections but I don't recall getting one myself before I was 10 when my dorm-mates taught me how to wank. And even then I was almost 12 before anything came out.

So I call bullshiat

Kids hit puberty earlier these days (probably because of better nutrition and hormones everywhere). And even if he hadn't hit puberty yet, he'd probably still enjoy the sensations.

As for erections, my 4 year old has morning wood sometimes (complicating the morning potty trip a bit). He's asked "why is my penis sticking up?" and I gave the detailed explanation of "they do that sometimes". (Hey, it's accurate...)

blottoman:He's going to live with his aunt and uncle. Wut? sounds like out of the frying pan, into the fire.

If that whole genetic line is farked that way (in more ways than one), I might suggest putting the kid in adoption, in another english-speaking country, and heavy counseling and observation for a few years.

What? You either have a bad memory or there was something physically wrong with you. I got frequent boners all my childhood life and I played "I'll touch yours if you touch mine with the little girl up the street a lot." I always got a throbber from it. I didn't have a clue about what it meant, though; it was just deliciously wicked. It was the same with all my buddies. We teased each other relentlessly about our spontaneous hard-ons.

So I call bullshiat. Pics or it didn't happen.

At 8 years old I was afraid to kiss a girl on the mouth because that would make her pregnant. Especially on a moonlit night. That's what happened on the old movies on TV; the soaps my mother watched taught me that a baby born out of wedlock would never get a name, a truly horrible fate. How would it know when it's mama was calling it for supper? It would starve! Then too it's the name that determines sex: you can tell Becky's a girl because "Becky" is a girl's name, right? Racer X would never have a baby without a name, neither would Bret Maverick.

You know how people accidentally post in the wrong thread? Well, this isn't your group therapy session.

When my son was small I had him shower with me in the big shower/tub. It was expedient and I knew he was getting clean. When he was about 6 he says to me, "hey dad, this skin here below my willie, it's got two things in it. They feel like balls. What are they?"

"Those're your balls, son. Go easy on 'em."

OK.

Another time he said, "Hey dad, the skin on my balls is all wrinkled. It looks just like a brain."

"Yep."

What I didn't tell him was that it functions much like a brain, too.

It never occurred to me to have him copulate with his mother. Of course, after our second kid was born she pretty much quit copulating altogether, so it might not have mattered.

I have had sex with a lot of mothers in my lifetime and yes even when I was underage, but never with my own mother and my dad was not there providing instructions. I am going to have to be on the side of I am not ok with this.
